Blame anti-fossil fuel crusade, not war for gas prices

Actions by the United States, directed at Iran, have resulted in the temporary closure of the Strait of Hormuz in the Mideast.
The Strait is a chokepoint controlling about 20% of global oil.
The result appears to be, comparatively speaking, a very brief spike in gas prices in exchange for permanently curtailing a radical regime’s ability to weaponize vital international shipping channels, or develop nuclear weapons to advance its “Death to America, the Great Satan!” commitment.
Nevertheless, former Vice President Kamala Harris would like you to believe that a recent surge in gas prices to over $4.00 (a level not seen since the Biden administration while she was in office when they topped $5) are to be blamed on President Trump and his “war of choice” on Iran.
